Class Evaluation

AP CP

                This AP Computer class has a lot of elements that made me like it. It enhanced my love for graphic design. I liked that this class is so different than any other class even the computer class. We were able to create our game and make a poster type explaining a new innovation. This gave me a new view of the world of technology. I was never able to learn about coding until this class. This class allowed us students to explore the coding world and how it functions.

                Some things I don’t like about this class are that I really would of like if we were given an introduction of how Code studio functioned. Other than that, I liked everything about this class. I was able to see a different perspective of computers and how o9ur world interacts with another with the source of coding and systems.

                I would recommend to introduce the students to the scratch program probably right at the beginning of the school year. For me it took a while to understand the commands because I didn’t know how they worked, but after so much practice during class and at home I was able to understand what each command did to the game. Although, it was a conflict trying to choose the rights ones it might if made it easier for me if I was exposed to the program earlier.

                The highlight of this class for me was trying to send a code to someone across the room. We had to work all hands on deck to create an image of how computers sent messages across the world.  Personally, I work better if I’m doing things with other students. I also learn better if I do things manually, from my own hands and thought.  I would so suggest doing more things like this for the upcoming students.

                I am writing and reading in my Life Planning book at least 5 minute every day. I love adding and checking off goals I’ve accomplished. I know my life further on from now will become more busy, but I will try my very best to at least read over it when I get the chance to. Reading this book makes me feel like I something forward on into my life and honestly that makes me feel so amazing.

                I am committee to being a CTR person because it’s what leads you into being a successful person in the decisions you must take.  It’s not just about doing what you think its right for you but someone doing what’s right for others. Makin yourself feel like you did the right thing improves your self-esteem. Being a CTR person will only make you better every time. 

Thousand Pines Camp Out

            My experience at the Thousand Pines Camp was pretty good. I got to sleep in a cabin with a great group of friends and with our counselor, Ms. Matos. My favorite part of the camping trip was zip lining. The obstacle I had to overcome was rock climbing but other than that I loved everything we were able to do. I was bale to go hiking at 5am, BB gun shooting, rope obstacle course, movie night, and most importantly I was able to bond with other people I never really did.

Class Evaluation
1. The things I like about this class is that we get to do interactive things about what we are learning. For example, when we had to make a model and make it send a message from portal to another. I like that we have the code.org website as a resource in having to learn the material needed for this class.
2. I don't like that now we haven't really done any interactive things to help us better understand what we are learning. For me its a fun way to learn and I understand what I'm learning by each unit or lesson that we are doing.
3. Some recommendations I would say is to have at least one interactive thing to do within the classmates for each lesson that way we remember what we learn and can later apply it when we take the AP exam.
4. A highlight for me in this class was being able to handle binary coding, something i never really new about. In general everything can be a highlight from this class because I learn to do new things every day about this course and what it takes.
5. One of the things I've really think I've done the best is the most recent project. I was about to filter data and clean it up and analyzing it as well. I learned how to make graphs out of the data and making things more understandable than just a table full of numbers.
6. I'm going to make sure I review the things that will be in the exam so I can be ready for when the day approaches. I will make sure I don't procrastinate in turning in the parts of the exam on time. I will make sure to make time in studying for this course and passing the exam.
7. I do read my Life Planning Goals Journal at least 5 minutes a day and so far I've been adding and checking things off my journal. As time is passing by I'm completing many of the things in my journal making me feel accomplished with myself.
8. I am committed in being a CTR and Arete person because I believe its the path into success. Being a person with these qualities only makes you strive in life and thats what I want to do.

 

AirBus E-Fan
A.) The AirBus E-Fan is an all electric plane. It is the first trainer plane built to be powered entirely by batteries. The electric motors will drive two ducted fans for about 75 minutes before the E-Fan has to land to recharge its power-dense lithium-polymer batteries, which are built into its wings.
B.) This innovation will help the planet as a whole by avoiding using gas to power the planes. It will enhance a more cleaner environment for the human life with its use of power-dense lithium-polymer batteries. It will offer a simpler performance to that of today-s gasoline offerings which would burn 25 to 50 percent less fuel.
C.) This innovation will allow the world to not only rely on fuel to power engines. The AirBus E-Fan will help the environment continue the greener lifestyle its always wanted to pursue. It will also better the life of our nature.
D.) I think this innovation is an amazing idea into making our world a better place. The fact that this plane will not use any fuel makes a big difference in our world and the way we live. This plane will then increase more ideas into making more go green daily objects and making a difference in our
world.

Google
A. This search engine launched in 1998, specializing in Internet-related services and products that include online-advertising technologies, search, cloud computing, and software. It was founded by Larry Page and Sergy Brin while they were students at Standford University.
B. This interent innovation has impacted everybody in the way that it is the most used search engine. Google became the dominat search engine on the Internet,and were the first to figure out how to successfully convert search results and transform Web search into a multi-billion dollar business.
C. This internet innovation has solved the problems on having to rely on other websites that aren't confidetial. Google usually gives out the most acuuarte information rather than other websites that can lead to scams and viruses.
D. I think this internet innovation has been a great source to every one in the world. Google has impacted the lives of everyone that does research online knowing they will get good results as they search using this browser. I use Google on a daily basis rather than using other websites like Yahoo, I strongly believe it is a very informative search engine.

PowerShake
A. This innovation allows mobiles and wearable devices to wirelessly charge other mobile and wearable devies on the go. PowerShake fit into small devices, met wirelss power transfer safety guidleines, and performed about as well at power transmission as commercial alternatives.
B. This innovation will help people easily recharge mobile or wearbvale gadgets, partictaliar for taks such as emergency phone calls. In the generation of today, its weird to meet sonmeone who doesnt have a phone. You also hear all the time people asking if someone has a charger with them. It will become convenient to people who use their ohones on a daily basis but dont carry a charger with them or have the resource of electricity when it is needed.
C. This innovation will solve the probelms of people needing their phones at the most imporant monent possibly for a call and ot having charge in their phones. This innovation will make poeple more wide open as to not having to worry of charging their phones the day beofre work or forgetting to charge it.
D. I think this innovation would be great. It does enhance the idea of using mobile phones more but if you think about it, phones are really needed when searching something important or making an important call. Not having to worry about charging my phone before coming to school is soemhting I would like.
